This verse is, therefore, virtually a parenthesis, in so far as the relative ho at the beginning of the next verse refers to the word musterion in v. 3; or if referred to that word as used in v. 4, it is to it as including the more limited idea expressed in v. 3.

Thus, as has been well observed, musterion and apokalupsis are correlative terms (Rom.xvi. 25); and as in the former clauses of the present verse there is the musterion, so in the latter the apokalupsis musteriou.
